Hi wurm!

[Guest Malvado1]

Recently I was approached by a good friend of mine (longshanks) and he asked if I would consider to return to wurm.

I allready knew about Playtimeovers removal of ban and also Balmore's and I considered this for some time, I would like to be honest with everyone here on wurm and tell a bit about my personal reasons for not returning.

The last time I played wurm was around February / mars , I can't remember exactly when it was, but I left due to several factors I'd like to share :

*The wast time of hours I spent daily on wurm : I probably spent an average of 6 to 12 hours daily.

*The fact that I was Neglecting other important things : Family , health (got pretty fatty by no excersise) , work.

*I also adquired muscular pain in both my chest and back due to grinding (repetetive mouse movements).

*The mental factor : Was spending my free time thinking about wurm, levels (heh, lev 75 / 85 is good for x) and the point it felt like some kind of drug.

*And not least, my forum behaviour : I was getting pretty negative around here, complaining, bitching and pointing fingers at almost everyone accusing honest people among people like Gavin ,Madt and not least playtimeover of cheating when many of these players did no such thing.

So, jokingly I told Longshanks that if he managed to get Oracle to unban my account Malvado I would be back, but I have to be honest, I really do not have any intentions of returning to wurm, not because it's not a Great game, because it is probably the best and most revolutionary Sandbox game that we have in Java, but mostly because I'm afraid I will slip back to my former behaviour both playwise and forumwise.

That's also the reason why I sent both Rolf and Inacron pms with detailed information about how I supposedly cheated (I made that information up due to the fact I felt I had a necesity to get banned and be unable to play ever again) and even though I do know how to cheat, macro or even utilize certain weaknesses the client has I never used these extensively to gain an advantage over other players ( I mostly gammaed and used G15 keyboard Macroes to avoid some of my muscular pains).

My intention when I started Gold 1 was to honestly help out rolf to improve the game for the good of the community, but I guess I got too involved and saw ghosts and cheaters where there was none, for this I know an aplogy to every single major player is due, and for this I WISH TO APOLOGIZE

I hope that the Gamemasters do not find this account to be dangerous to the wurm forum and community as I'd rather not have to re-register or go through proxies just to reply to this post. I will however not post anywhere else unless a Gm / Oracle approves that I can do so.

Thanks for reading this post.

Malvado.

Really, can you not control yourself to only play like an hour a day?

[Guest Malvado1]

I'm afraid I would not.

I hate to be non productive and would try to help out the community as best as I can.

It's just the way I am.

[Guest pto]

big of you.

i still wont ever like you because of some of the things you've done. but ye glad you edmitted, thank you.

Judging by that post, no.

Tho I have NO room to talk, as I am on as much as possible too.

I can't say I'm on 6hr a day, but I am on atleased 2hr ( and when I get the chance more... ).

[Guest Malvado1]

big of you.

i still wont ever like you because of some of the things you've done. but ye glad you edmitted, thank you.

Pto, I never expected you to like me, nor do I wish for you to do so. However I appreaciate your sincerity and thanks.

I do hope however that you are able to play honorably and without using any modifications to the wurm client in any form or

any kind of ingame glitches / exploits even if it's more tempting than anything else.

Since I've been able to quit the game, I expect you to be able to do the same with the cheats

Know who's making the hax with Prometheus?

Glad its working out good for you, I would go INSANE!

[Guest Malvado1]

Glad its working out good for you, I would go INSANE!

I perfectly understand you.

Some part of me still thinks about wurm and grinding skills, thats pretty insane, right?

For example clearing my garden I thought about how much skill I would have in woodcutting and if I could "chop down" a tree in a few hits...

But my advise to you is to try to gradually get control over the time you spend and try to clear your mind about wurm, in fact I'd say we have to reprogram ourselves to be succesfully "unaddicted" to a mmorpg such as wurm online if we are having addiction problems like I had.

Wurm is waiting Malvaldo dot dot dot  :-*

It always will 

[Ghosted 0]

Mine isn't out of hand...

Its close, but not there yet.

Once it hits that fine line I'll do the worst...

[longshanks 45]

heh you got me.

pity though man wurm is a lesser place without you man

[Guest Malvado1]

I do miss the community and the good fun we had at Lo.

Great players makes any game fun!

[Guest Khalid]

Never knew you, but it's good to hear you're on your feet and doing well. Good luck, and have a good time.

It is a shame you are not still playing as it was fun; however, sounds like things have improved for you in RL which is the main thing. 

[Guest Malvado1]

Leaving was very hard due to the many good players in wurm.

But I'm also quite happy with real life right now and I'd like it to be like this.

[Looroll 0]

I recently realised i was spending faaaarrrr too much time on Wurm, so I just drew up a list of things to do...It worked...

[Guest shinobi]

Hi malvado...

I have problems sometimes i think about wurm is waste of electrons...  8)

For me most important is having beds in the game, so i can play 1 hour per day with sleep bonus.

But unfortunately i stay weak and will never be a strong player. To avoid the "drug of wurm", skill gain should only be possible max. 5 minutes per day.  :-X

Because of fatigue or dunno.

The endless skill grinding is the real boring part of this game.

And evryone can use macros is the reason the skill gain on certain actions is that horrible low, punishing the real players like me. For example my mining went up from 52 up to 54 within 2 month, after having mined uncountable cave tiles.

Thanks for that and yeh, stay banned...

Hello.

[Huck. L. Barry 1]

Well, I haven't played more than one or two hours in total since the end of September, so I wouldn't say I'm addicted.

[Madt 1178]

Keep this thread clean of cheap insults. And please use english only.

[Looroll 0]

I'm guessing he deleteded something.

[Guest Malvado1]

He deleted the post where I told Huck to not try to grind more than gavin since he would have to spend 2x to 3x more time if he wanted to beat the king of jk grinders.

Only reason I posted that in Norwegian was because I knew Huck is also , and it's not like anything offensive was in that post , something several players and Rolf could probably read themselves.

I guess moderation is now very strickt and harsh here on these forums and It should be just done like that, with inteligence and a case by case basis done by competent Gms, that way the forum will flourish and people will be happy everywhere.

Lets Danecs!

Goodbye

Not always, I reported the f-bomb last night and it's still up.

Anyway, ha det gøy uten Wurm.
